Description

Superparamagnetic composite nanoparticle, preparation method thereof and method for efficiently and selectively recovering phosphate
Technical Field
The invention relates to a water treatment technology. In particular, the present invention relates to a superparamagnetic composite nanoparticle, a method for preparing the same, and a method for efficiently and selectively recovering phosphate from treated water using the composite nanoparticle.
Background
Phosphorus is widely used as an important raw material in agriculture and industry. Phosphorus is present in water primarily in the form of phosphate. Excess phosphorus is discharged into surface water in large quantities through sewage discharge and agricultural runoff, resulting in eutrophication of the water body. Strict regulations have been issued in some countries around the world in an attempt to control the phosphorus content in natural water bodies to be below 0.02mg/L and the phosphorus content in sewage to be below 0.5 mg/L. Meanwhile, phosphorus is also a non-renewable resource, and if the demand of human beings for phosphate fertilizers continues to increase, the remaining mined phosphate ore can only be maintained for 50 years. Therefore, in order to alleviate the contradiction between the eutrophication problem of water and the gradual shortage of phosphorus resources, the invention of an advanced technology for removing and recovering phosphate in water is urgently needed.
At present, the method for removing phosphorus in water mainly comprises the following steps: chemical precipitation, biological, and adsorption. The adsorption method is easy to design, operate and low in cost, so that the adsorption method is known as an effective method for removing phosphorus from sewage. The key point of the adsorption method is to search for a proper adsorbent, and currently, phosphorus removal adsorbents commonly used in water treatment comprise activated carbon, resin and the like. However, the water to be dephosphorized may contain various competitive ions, and the following disadvantages limit the practical application of these adsorbents: (1) no selectivity and low adsorption capacity; (2) the adsorbent is difficult to desorb, so that the reusability is poor; (3) the recovery of the adsorbent after water treatment is difficult.
Mixing superparamagnetic material (such as ferroferric oxide, Fe)3O4) The magnetic adsorbent with the core-shell structure formed by combining the particles and the adsorbing material has great application potential in the field of water purification. In the prior art, when a magnetic adsorbent material with a core-shell structure is prepared, the surface of a superparamagnetic material particle is coated in advanceA non-magnetic protective layer (such as an oxidation-resistant layer) is coated on the adsorbing material. For example, mixing Fe3O4The pre-coating of the core with a layer of silica is a common Fe-preventing coating3O4By oxidation followed by precipitation (e.g. by bringing ZrOCl2Hydrolyzed in a mixed solution of concentrated ammonia and ethanol) to deposit zirconia on the silica layer. However, the inventors have found that pre-coating a non-magnetic protective layer (e.g. a silica layer) results in a significant reduction in the magnetic properties of the adsorbent, which leads to difficult separation of the adsorbent and ultimately to prolonged magnetic separation times. In addition, owing to the rapid uncontrolled hydrolysis of the zirconium salts during the precipitation process, larger ZrO deposits can form which accumulate in the wrong place2The agglomerates result in a non-uniform, discontinuous zirconia layer being formed, such that the sorbent surface is not completely covered by the zirconia layer, and the zirconia layer has undulating surface and widely fluctuating thickness. In addition, when the adsorbent is regenerated using a strong base (e.g., NaOH), the zirconia layer is not continuous and does not completely cover the surface of the adsorbent, which may cause the underlying silica layer to dissolve, destroy the structure of the adsorbent, and cause Fe3O4The nuclei are oxidized, which further affects the reusability of the adsorbent.
Disclosure of Invention
In order to solve one or more of the above problems, the present invention provides a superparamagnetic composite nanoparticle having a core-shell structure, the composite nanoparticle including a superparamagnetic material particle as a core, and a zirconia outer shell directly coated on the core.
The invention also provides a method for preparing the superparamagnetic composite nano-particles with the core-shell structures, which comprises the following steps: dispersing particles of a superparamagnetic material and zirconium (IV) alkyl alcohol in absolute ethanol to form a mixture; and adding water to the mixture to cause controlled hydrolysis of the zirconium (IV) alkyl alcohol to form a zirconium oxide shell coating directly on the particles of superparamagnetic material.
By the method for controlled hydrolysis of zirconium (IV) alkyl alcohol, zirconium oxide can be directly and uniformly loaded on the surface of a superparamagnetic material particle serving as a core, so that the core-shell composite nanoparticle with a zirconium oxide shell layer directly coated on the core is obtained. The inventors have surprisingly found that the composite nanoparticles of the invention have a significantly improved specific surface area and zirconium loading compared to prior art composite particles in which the surface of the core is pre-deposited with silica, and therefore promote the adsorption of phosphate in water; in addition, the composite nano-particles of the present invention also have stronger magnetization, thereby facilitating the separation of phosphate from water using magnetic force after adsorbing the phosphate. The composite nano-particle has superparamagnetism, has high selectivity on phosphate, can efficiently and selectively recover the phosphate under the condition that competitive anions with high concentration exist in water, can resist strong alkali, and has high chemical stability and magnetic stability, so the composite nano-particle can be repeatedly used. The composite nanoparticles of the present invention are therefore particularly suitable as adsorbents for the recovery of phosphate from treated water, including natural water and sewage. The composite nano-particles can be used as an adsorbent, can quickly and selectively adsorb phosphate from water, can be easily separated from water after adsorption, and finally desorbs the phosphate from the adsorbent in strong alkali to obtain high phosphate recovery rate, and can be recycled during regeneration of the adsorbent. The recovery of phosphate from water using the composite nanoparticles of the present invention has outstanding economic and environmental advantages. The invention has important significance for controlling water eutrophication and recovering phosphate resources.

Detailed Description
In order that those skilled in the art will better understand the present invention, a more detailed description is provided below with reference to specific embodiments and the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited thereto.
The invention provides a superparamagnetic composite nanoparticle with a core-shell structure, which comprises superparamagnetic material particles serving as a core and a zirconia outer shell layer directly coated on the core.
The term "direct coating" means that zirconia is directly deposited on the particles of superparamagnetic material (e.g. Fe) as a core3O4) So that there is no other non-magnetic material layer (e.g. SiO) between the zirconia outer shell layer and the core2Layers).
The zirconia outer shell layer is preferably continuous. In other words, the zirconia outer shell layer has no voids, and thus the surface of the superparamagnetic material particle as a core is completely coated with zirconia.
The thickness of the zirconia outer shell layer is preferably substantially uniform. Fluctuation of thickness of the outer shell layer

May be in the range of 25-35nm, e.g. 27, 29, 31, 33nm, preferably 30 nm.
The composite nanoparticles of the present invention can have significantly improved zirconium loading compared to prior art composite particles having silica pre-deposited on the surface of the core. The mass of zirconium in the zirconia outer shell layer of the present invention can comprise 23% to 30% of the total mass of the composite nanoparticle, for example 25%, 26.7%, 27%, 29%.
The superparamagnetic material particle may be selected from ferroferric oxide and gamma-ferric oxide. For example, the superparamagnetic material particles may for example be ferroferric oxide particles prepared by a conventional solvothermal process, preferably ferroferric oxide particles prepared from ferric chloride (e.g. ferric chloride hexahydrate) in ethylene glycol in the presence of sodium citrate and sodium acetate by a solvothermal process. Among them, the molar ratio of ferric chloride hexahydrate, sodium citrate and sodium acetate is preferably in the range of 1.5:0.25:6.5 to 2.5:0.35:7.5, for example, 2:0.3: 7.
The mean particle size of the particles of superparamagnetic material may be in the range of 180-250nm, for example 190, 200, 210, 220, 230 or 240nm, preferably 200 nm. The specific surface area of the superparamagnetic material particles can be 80-100m2In the range of/g, for example 85, 87, 89.2, 90, 92, 95 or 97m2(ii) in terms of/g. The saturation magnetization of the particles of the superparamagnetic material is preferably in the range of 55-75emu/g, for example 60, 63, 65.7, 67, 70 or 72 emu/g. The particles of superparamagnetic material may be monodisperse.
The present invention has surprisingly found that core-shell superparamagnetic composite nanoparticles with excellent properties are obtained despite the absence of the normally required pre-coated non-magnetic material layer (protective layer such as silica). The composite nanoparticles of the present invention can have significantly increased specific surface area compared to prior art composite particles in which the surface of the core is pre-deposited with silica. The specific surface area of the composite nano-particles can be 125-145m2In the range of/g, for example 130, 135, 135.8, 137, 140 or 142m2(ii) in terms of/g. The composite nanoparticles of the present invention may have a stronger magnetization than prior art composite particles in which silica is pre-deposited on the surface of the core. The saturation magnetization of the composite nanoparticles of the present invention may range from 20 to 40emu/g, such as 25, 27, 30.5, 32, 35, or 38 emu/g.
The composite nano-particles have good adsorption capacity on phosphate in water, and the adsorption capacity on the phosphate can be more than 15mg P/g; and/or the adsorption rate constant for phosphate may be 1.5 g/(mg. min) or more.
The composite nano-particles can tolerate strong alkali and have high chemical stability and magnetic stability, so the composite nano-particles have good reusability. When the composite nano-particles are repeatedly used for recovering phosphate in water through an adsorption/desorption cycle process, after 5 times of adsorption/desorption cycle processes, the saturation magnetization can be kept above 96% of the saturation magnetization before the composite nano-particles are used; and/or the zirconium content may be maintained above 97% of the zirconium content prior to its use; and/or the recovery of phosphate during the 5 th adsorption/desorption cycle may be maintained above 95% of the recovery of phosphate during the 1 st adsorption/desorption cycle. This is a good indication that the composite nanoparticles of the present invention exhibit excellent chemical and magnetic stability despite the absence of a pre-coated non-magnetic material layer (protective layer such as silica) as is typically required.
The present invention also provides a method for preparing composite nanoparticles, comprising the steps of: dispersing particles of a superparamagnetic material and zirconium (IV) alkyl alcohol in absolute ethanol to form a mixture; and adding water to the mixture to cause controlled hydrolysis of the zirconium (IV) alkyl alcohol to form a zirconium oxide shell coating directly on the particles of superparamagnetic material.
The term "controlled hydrolysis" means that the rate of hydrolysis is controlled by controlling the amount of water added and the reaction temperature so that it proceeds gently and slowly. More specifically, the hydrolysis temperature may be controlled at a temperature of 50-70 ℃ (e.g., 55, 57, 60, 62, 65, 67 ℃), and the volume ratio of the amount of water added to the mixture to the absolute ethanol may be controlled in the range of 1:350 to 1:450 (e.g., 1:370, 1:380, 1:390, 1:400, 1:410, 1:420, 1:430, 1: 440).
The zirconium (IV) alkyl alcohol can be selected from zirconium butanol and zirconium propanol. The water added to the mixture is preferably deionized water. The mass ratio of zirconium (IV) alkyl alcohol to the particles of superparamagnetic material is preferably in the range of 3:1 to 4:1, e.g. 3.3:1, 3.5:1, 3.7: 1.
The invention also provides a method of treating water containing phosphate comprising contacting any of the composite nanoparticles according to the invention with water containing phosphate to adsorb phosphate from the water. By the water treatment method, the removal rate of phosphate in water can reach more than 99%. The water to be treated may be, for example, natural water or sewage water. In addition to phosphate ions, the water being treated may also contain other competing anions, such as chloride, nitrate, sulfate, bicarbonate, or may also contain humic acid. The presence of these competing anions or humic acids does not substantially affect the adsorption of phosphate by the composite nanoparticles of the invention, and therefore the process has a high selectivity. The method may further include a separation step in which the phosphate-adsorbed composite nanoparticles are separated from water and a desorption step, which are performed after the adsorption step; in the desorption step, the separated composite nanoparticles are desorbed to recover phosphate and regenerate the composite nanoparticles. The composite nano-particles of the invention have superparamagnetism and can be separated by magnetic force. The desorption step may be carried out in a strong alkaline solution, preferably sodium hydroxide solution. The concentration of the strong base solution may generally be in the range of 0.1 to 1 mole per liter (M). By the water treatment method, the recovery rate of the phosphate in the water can reach more than 88 percent.
Hereinafter, ZrO with a core-shell structure2-Fe3O4Superparamagnetic composite nanoparticles (denoted as ZrO)2@Fe3O4) The present invention will be described in more detail for the purpose of example. In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, monodisperse Fe is prepared by a solvothermal method3O4Microspheres, followed by controlled hydrolysis of zirconium (IV) butanolate (modified sol-gel method) in the presence of monodisperse Fe3O4The surface is directly and uniformly loaded with zirconia, thereby obtaining ZrO2@Fe3O4A composite nanoparticle material. Fe3O4Can be prepared as follows: mixing ferric chloride hexahydrate, sodium citrate and sodium acetate in ethylene glycol to uniformity, sealing the obtained mixture in autoclave (such as with polytetrafluoroethylene)A stainless steel autoclave with an internal bladder) under heating (e.g., 200 ℃) to completion (e.g., about 10 hours). After cooling to room temperature, the resulting black product is washed (e.g., three times with ethanol and deionized water, respectively), and then collected under a magnetic field. The optimum molar ratio of ferric chloride hexahydrate, sodium citrate and sodium acetate is in the range 1.5:0.25: 6.5-2.5: 0.35:7.5, preferably 2:0.3: 7. In Fe3O4Upper cladding ZrO2This can be achieved by slow hydrolysis of zirconium (IV) n-butoxide in ethanol containing a small amount of water. The surface coating process comprises the following steps: mixing Fe3O4And zirconium n-butoxide in absolute ethanol until homogeneous (e.g., stirring at 60 ℃ for 30 minutes); to the resulting mixture, a small amount (e.g., 1:400 by volume with absolute ethanol) of deionized water is added to allow controlled hydrolysis of zirconium n-butoxide (e.g., 5 hours at 60 ℃). The product is collected and washed (for example, it may be washed three times using ethanol and deionized water, respectively) to obtain ZrO having a core-shell structure2@Fe3O4Composite materials, as shown in (e) and (f) of fig. 2.
As indicated by a Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM) test ((g) in FIG. 2), the ZrO2@Fe3O4The composite material has superparamagnetism. As shown by adsorption/desorption experiments (FIGS. 3 to 8), the ZrO2@Fe3O4The composite material can rapidly and selectively remove and recover phosphate from natural water and sewage, can easily separate the adsorbent from the water after adsorption, and finally can desorb the phosphate in strong alkali to obtain high phosphate recovery rate, thereby providing a material capable of economically and environmentally recovering the phosphate.

The surface coating process comprises the following steps: 0.5g of said Fe is mixed by mechanical stirring3O4The particles are dispersed in 200mL of absolute ethyl alcohol; adding 2mL of n-butyl alcohol zirconium solution into the dispersion and stirring for 30 minutes at 60 ℃; deionized water was added at a volume ratio of 1:400 (i.e., 0.5mL) to absolute ethanol and stirring was continued at 60 ℃ for 5 hours. After the product is collected, the product is respectively washed three times by using ethanol and deionized water, and finally the ZrO with the core-shell structure is obtained2@Fe3O4Composite nano-particle material, ZrO2Is uniformly deposited on Fe3O4On the surface, a continuous shell layer is formed, the following Fe3O4The particles are completely coated as shown in (e) of fig. 2.
ZrO prepared by Vibratory Sample Magnetometer (VSM) testing2@Fe3O4Has superparamagnetism and saturation magnetization of up to 30.5emu/g ((g) in FIG. 2). Both of these characteristics are advantageous for ZrO2@Fe3O4Magnetic separation in water treatment processes. Superparamagnetism of ZrO2@Fe3O4Can be well redispersed in aqueous media without agglomeration or hysteresis, and a high magnetization enables ZrO2@Fe3O4Separating rapidly at lower magnetic force.
Preparation example 3
Preparation of SiO in core-shell structure by sol-gel method2@Fe3O4And (3) granules. 0.5g of Fe synthesized according to preparation example 13O4The nanoparticles were dispersed in 200mL ethanol (95%) solution and sonicated for 10 min. A mixture of concentrated aqueous ammonia (10mL, 28% by mass) and deionized water (18mL) was added to the dispersion. After stirring for 30 minutes, 1mL of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) was quickly injected and the reaction was continued for 4 hours. After magnetic separation and washing several times with ethanol and deionized water, SiO is obtained2@Fe3O4And (3) nanoparticles. Observed by a Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) (FIG. 2 (b)), the surface thereof was smooth, and SiO2The thickness is about 30 nm.
Preparation of ZrO by modified sol-gel process (controlled hydrolysis of zirconium n-butoxide)2@SiO2@Fe3O4And (3) particles I. 0.8g of SiO prepared as described above2@Fe3O4Dispersed in 200mL of absolute ethanol. To the resulting suspension was added 2mL of zirconium n-butanol and mechanically stirred at 60 ℃ for 30 minutes. Then 0.5mL of deionized water was injected to initiate hydrolysis. After stirring at 60 ℃ for 5 hours, the mixture was collected with a magnet and washed three times with deionized water and ethanol to obtain ZrO2@SiO2@Fe3O4The Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) observation result of the particle I is shown in (c) of fig. 2.
In contrast, it is prepared by conventional precipitation methodsZrO2@SiO2@Fe3O4And (II) particles. 0.8g of SiO prepared as described above2@Fe3O4The nanoparticles were dispersed in a mixed solution containing 80mL of deionized water, 1.5mL of concentrated ammonia (28%) and 60mL of ethanol (95%). The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes. Then ZrOCl is dripped2·8H2O solution (0.61g in 2mL ethanol), the resulting mixture was stirred for 6 hours. The product was collected by magnetic separation and washed three times with water and ethanol, respectively, to obtain ZrO2@SiO2@Fe3O4And (II) particles.
The ZrO prepared by the precipitation method was found by observation with a Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM)2@SiO2@Fe3O4Particle II showed poor inhomogeneous ZrO2Surface of the layer (d in FIG. 2), secondary particles and large ZrO are formed due to rapid uncontrolled hydrolysis of zirconium salts in the aqueous phase in this process2Agglomerates which are discontinuously distributed on the surface of the composite particles so that ZrO-free regions are present on the surface of the particles2A bare area of coverage, which can adversely affect the performance of adsorptive phosphate removal and its reusability.
The results of the measurements of the specific surface area, the zirconium content, and the saturation magnetization value of the particles obtained in each preparation example are shown in table 1 below.
TABLE 1 BET specific surface area, zirconium content and saturation magnetization of different particles
Figure BDA0001488714190000111
As shown by the test results in Table 1, SiO2Layer of Fe3O4The surface area of the particles was from 89.2m2The/g is reduced to 9.6m2(ii) in terms of/g. This in turn has a significant influence on ZrO2@SiO2@Fe3O4Surface area of the particles (17.1 m)2In terms of/g). In contrast, ZrO of the present invention2@Fe3O4The particles then have a size of up to 135.8m2Surface area per gram and also a Zr content significantly higher than ZrO2@SiO2@Fe3O4The Zr content of the particles, which favors phosphate adsorption. In addition, ZrO2@Fe3O4The magnetization of the particles is significantly higher than ZrO2@SiO2@Fe3O4Particles, which facilitate magnetic separation of the adsorbed particles.
With the prepared particles, an adsorption/desorption process as shown in fig. 3 was performed. The prepared ZrO2@Fe3O4The composite particles were placed in a phosphate-containing body of water and the mixture was then shaken until the phosphate adsorption reached equilibrium, as shown in FIG. 4, which took about 15 minutes to reach equilibrium, which is comparable to ZrO2@SiO2@Fe3O4The particles (about 60 minutes) are much faster. In addition, ZrO2@Fe3O4The adsorption rate constant of the particles is 1.75 g/(mg. min), which is much higher than that of ZrO2@SiO2@Fe3O4Adsorption rate constant of the particles (0.24 g/(mg. min)). Thus, ZrO2@Fe3O4The ability to adsorb phosphate more rapidly is unexpected.
After the phosphate is adsorbed, ZrO is treated by a magnetic field2@Fe3O4Separated from the water and collected. Prepared ZrO2@Fe3O4The adsorption capacity of the composite material to phosphate is 15.91mg P/g when the pH value of the water solution is 7, which is far larger than that of Fe3O4Adsorption amount of (about 5mg P/g) and ZrO2@SiO2@Fe3O4The amount of adsorbed (6.33mg P/g) is shown in FIG. 5. These results show that ZrO used in the present invention2Direct coating of Fe3O4The phosphate adsorption effect can be advantageously improved.
In the desorption process, ZrO already adsorbed with phosphate in the adsorption process is desorbed2@Fe3O4Added to a desorption solution of 1M NaOH for desorption and recovery of phosphate. For phosphate concentration, the volume ratio of desorption solution (NaOH solution) to adsorption solution (treated water) was 1:10, at which a phosphate recovery of up to 82.8% could be obtained (fig. 6). After the recovery of the phosphate, the phosphate is recovered,ZrO obtained anew2@Fe3O4Can be continuously used for recovering phosphate in natural water or sewage. FIG. 6 shows the ZrO prepared2@Fe3O4The phosphate adsorption/desorption properties remained stable after 5 cycles of adsorption/desorption, indicating that ZrO2@Fe3O4Has high reusability in the aspect of recovering phosphate in water bodies. FIG. 7 shows the ZrO prepared2@Fe3O4The phosphate adsorption performance is still stable when the mole ratio of various competitive anions to phosphate is as high as 100:1, and ZrO is shown2@Fe3O4Has high selectivity for phosphate adsorption. FIG. 8 shows ZrO2@Fe3O4The magnetization value of (A) was almost constant after the course of several adsorption/desorption cycles, indicating that the ZrO prepared was2@Fe3O4Has high magnetic stability.
Application example 1
For the ZrO prepared2@Fe3O4The adsorption and recovery experiments of phosphate were carried out on synthetic wastewater containing 3.1mg/L of phosphorus. The synthetic water contained 3.1mg of P/L phosphate, 71mg/L chloride, 120mg/L nitrate and 192mg/L sulfate. ZrO (ZrO)2@Fe3O4The amount of (B) was 0.5g/L, and the pH of the solution was 7.0. After adsorbing phosphate, ZrO is magnetically treated2@Fe3O4And (5) separating. The removal rate of phosphate is 99.5%, and the concentration of the residual phosphate in the synthetic water is 0.01mg P/L, which is obviously lower than the standard threshold value of phosphate in natural water, namely 0.02mg P/L.
Application example 2
Samples of wastewater were taken from local wastewater treatment plants and the water quality parameters are listed in table 2. A certain amount of ZrO2@Fe3O4Putting into sewage with proper volume to enable ZrO2@Fe3O4The addition amount was 0.5 g/L. The mixture was stirred for 1 hour and then ZrO was magnetically treated2@Fe3O4And (5) separating. Finally, the concentration of phosphate in the sewage is lower than 0.02mg P/L, the removal rate is 99.0 percent, and the sewage reaches the same levelPhosphorus content of 0.5mg/L as specified in the discharge standard.
